Abstract

Television, radio and the press invite people to publicly debate or discuss. Commonly enough, the audience experiences the ''Them again!'' impression, that is the impression to either ear the same stories being discussed or see the same actors and commentators on the medias. Conversely, politicians - among other public figures - may complain of not getting proper, or worse, biased coverage or presence in the media. Is this just an impression or is it a reality, at least partly?
